Abstract

Results are presented of what, to the knowledge of the authors, is the first study of the sensitivity of a photonic crystal fibre (PCF) under steady-state gamma irradiation. Radiation-induced attenuation of a PCF has been measured at 1.55 µm. This new type of fibre showed a higher attenuation level than a standard monomode fibre but had a fast kinetic of recovery after irradiation.
